Oceanfront Jungle Retreat, Pool, Steps to the Sea - Houses for Rent in Puerto Viejo de Talamanca, Limón Province, Costa Rica

We loved the location being across from the beach, the pool was clean and nice to dip into when it was hot, the rooms had AC that kept us cool at night, the layout of the home was very clean and comfortable, the kitchen was very easy to use. We cooked with ease. The water clean and filtered. We felt secure and secluded. The garden patio and pool was so relaxing and felt like a paradise. Has a Caribbean beach feel. The beds are very comfortable and the lighting storms spectacular. There is a cool breeze from the ocean that re-energize the soul. We had four people, this can easily accommodate three couples or a large family with the three Large bedroom three areas, the deck has a overlooking the pool and garden area giving it a extremely eye pleasing view. The price point is what we were looking for and exceeded our expectations. Thank you for making your Casa Luna our home away from home.

Perfect beach location, awesome recommendations, I would definitely stay there again.

Great spot within a stones throw of the ocean.  The house has many amenities, but most valuable to us were the private bathrooms for each bedroom, each with climate controls; great shared living spaces (indoor and out); and tiny but awesome dunk pool. The house reflects some wear and tear but Rise was very responsive on issues.

We loved the view from upstairs deck and the beautiful garden, and the proximity to the beach

This stay had a great location across the beach from Playa Negra. Also, immediately next to Perla Negra which can get  loud at times, especially since most spaces are open air. The car traffic was loud, and the parking is absolutely awful. The AC in the upstairs bedrooms worked well, but downstairs wasn't sufficient for the room, and it does not cool the bathroom so keep the door closed at all times. The doors were something else too. The drive gate only works by remote, and dont get it wet. The front door doesnt close unless locked. We were notified upon arrival someone would be out to repair the keypad. It wasnt repaired until we were locked out(5 days after arrival), and the manual key did not work, and we were forced to call for  entry. Also, the pool was "cleaned" twice while we were there but it was always low on water levels and full of sand, upon arrival and throughout our stay we didn't consider it clean.  Property has great potential but needs serious attention to upkeep.

Hi Jerrid, Our team strives to maintain transparency and provide high-quality experiences for our guests, and we wanted to clarify some discrepancies in the review left. 1. Location and Noise: We explicitly state on our listing that the property is across from the beach road in front of the ocean, which is clear from both the listing description and photos. Being adjacent to a rural road is common for beachfront homes in Costa Rica, and any associated sounds are consistent with this type of location. 2. Open Spaces and Parking: The entire house, apart from the patios and pool area, is fully enclosed. The claim about "open spaces" may have been a misunderstanding. Additionally, the listing clearly states that we have driveway parking for one car, which matches what we provide. We do not advertise additional parking. 3. Air Conditioning: The downstairs air conditioning unit is designated for the bedrooms only and was thoroughly maintained before the guest's arrival. Cooling may be impacted if doors to the bathroom or patio are left open, but there was no report of any issues with the AC during the stay. 4. Door and Keypad: We have a standard door handle with a deadbolt for added security, which functions normally. The keypad battery required a replacement, and we informed re this this at check-in, and provided a manual key as a temporary solution. The manual key did work throughout the stay, although it was expressed a preference for the keypad. When it was reported you were “locked out,” our technician arrived within 20 minutes to assist. Also, per your comment in the review and to confirm that, no you cannot get an electronic gate key wet - when it got wet (as this was confirmed by our handiman to be the cause of your issue), it no longer functioned and had to be repaired. 5. Pool Condition: We have records, including photos, showing the pool was consistently clean and properly filled during the stay. Any sand in the pool could result from guest use, and we maintain high standards of pool cleanliness with regular professional cleanings. At this property the pool is cleaned and maintained 3 times a week, regardless of occupancy. Our goal is to ensure that all information on our listing is accurate and that guests have a positive experience, although our above points are correct, we of course would not wish that you felt your stay was anything other than perfect. We hope that you will come back to visit one day so we might improve on the previous sentiments. Happy travels till then :)

We had an amazing time!!  The beach was close and everything was accessible- super fun place to stay- we would definitely come again!

We love the house very specious . Pool is small but one side is almost 5”10 deep and the other 4-5feet gradually goes deeper. No TV- we would have like to set music videos or our Nintendo switch . However you have an Alexa speaker- we moved it from up stairs to down and where we needed it . The beach is right across the house the waves are loud and clear at pool and outside patio . Once You close room doors it’s hard to hear it. Morning birds and dogs are your alarms. Lots of dogs however they are super nice and friendly at the beach many around . The TukTuk 3 passenger only was nice to move around 5 min into town . The bicycling near by to mini grocery store 2 min or the bigger grocery store 10 min - we walked and it was beautiful cool bugs/frogs/ birds.The main town food and shopping is 20 min bicycle ride . To far to walk if .We loved the trees/beach clean was amazing super calm and visible fish . Perfect for kids . No big waves . I had 3 teenagers and we can’t wait to come go back

Hi Dayi, thank you so much for your review and your suggestions. We have sent them over to be reviewed for the future. I'm glad you had such a lovely stay with your family and hopefully see you back here soon :)

We truly enjoyed our time at Casa Luna, easy walk to restaurant, bar and nice well-stocked convenience store. Nice black sand beach and so close to Puerto Viejo for shops, restaurants & nightlife.

This place can be much better if a little time was put into it to fix a few things. When paying for a place on vacation, everything should be in working condition.

We're so glad you enjoyed your stay with us! Please come back again soon!

Everything is perfect. A stay to be repeated. You feel like it's your home. We hope to return.

Todo perfecto. Una estancia para repetir. Sientes que es tu casa. Esperamos volver.

Very well furnished and decorated space. well stocked kitchen and nice welcome fruit and beer. The place was well maintained and was kept clean by their staff throughout our stay. Many places to eat, visit and shop at nearby.

The place is beautiful, clean, modern, and spacious. Everything was exactly as listed. We enjoyed the pool the AC in all the bedrooms as well as the fruit, snacks and drinks they provided for us. The place is also well kept with high quality  linnen. The communication was good and fast. We even got laundry service done for an additional reasonable price. I highly recommended it. And hope to rented again.

Very nice house, excellent design, and very comfortable!  to stay in a place near the beach

Excellent infrastructure. Great that it had two separate spaces. Highly recommended. Thank you

Excelente infraestructura. Genial que tuviera dos espacios independientes. Muy recomendable Gracias

We fell in love with Casa Luna! From being greated so kindly by the amazing Fabian, to the lovely locals in the surrounding stores/hotels/in town, we immediately felt comfortable and had the best time. The property itself exceeded our expectations - the ivy covered compound walls made us feel safe & secure. The interior and exterior areas are gorgeous and comfy.  If it is still under Rise's Management for our next visit, we would absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful beachfront place. Prime location!

Lugar precioso frente a la playa. Ubicación privilegiada!

The stay was very good, very clean, as shown in the photos, however, they asked me to leave at 10 am and that had never happened to me and the place only has space to store a car. Otherwise everything was excellent.

La estancia me pareció muy bien, muy limpio, tal y como lo muestran las fotografías sin embargo me solicitaron que debía de salir a las 10 am y eso nunca me había pasado y el lugar solo tiene espacio para guardar un carro. Por lo demás todo excelente.

Perfect location and very easy to work with.

Excellent stay. Beautiful house in a great location.  The pool was very nice on a hot day. Very good communication from the managers. Safe and secure with private parking area. Highly recommended.

The Airbnb photos were deceiving. The kitchen is not well equipped and the very small appliances were old. There is no dishwasher and only a tiny sink to wash dishes in. The AC in the lower bedroom was problematic and the location undesirable next to a big construction site and on a busy road.  As a result there was a constant layer of dust everywhere.  I cannot recommend this place. My family wanted to leave after one night but we could not get a refund.

We were very disappointed to read this review. We strive to go above and beyond at Casa Luna and we feel we did that in this circumstance as well.   The kitchen is very well equipped, but the guest requested extra items so that they could bake a cake at the house. One of our team members promptly went out and purchased the required supplies but did not purchase an electronic mixer as, frankly, people don't bake very often in the jungle especially when there are delicious bakeries very close by! Despite that, we wanted to do what we could, so we got everything required to bake a cake by hand and included candles in the purchase.  We do not advertise a dishwasher on the listing, so we do not understand why that was mentioned.  The AC in the lower bedroom was only an issue because they didn't fully understand that there were sensors in that room, and when a door is open, the AC won't turn on. After the explanation, it worked perfectly for the duration of their stay.  The house is nowhere near a construction site. It does sit in front of a gravel road, and occasionally a truck will pass. If it hasn't been raining, dust can enter the house. We offered cleaning services multiple times, but both times, she denied the offer. If any future guests are concerned about this, we offer daily cleaning services if requested during the dry season.

We loved our stay at  Casa Luna  we would recommend to anyone - loved the separate areas for living & lounging & sleeping.  Perfect location to Banana Azul. We had (3) young couples staying there, and we had Casa Luna with us Grands, two of our grandkids and their parents.  It truly was a perfect place for us.

Ok so the property is located right across the street from beach just as advertised and it’s super clean and stocked with water. The property manager Nina is an awesome lady who does everything she can to make you feel comfortable. It’s a two stores property with two bedrooms upstairs and two bathrooms and one bedroom bathroom downstairs. The pool is small but refreshing the only bummer is that because of the construction going on down the street there are big trucks going down the street during the day making noise and kicking up dust which’s gets into the pool, also affecting sitting on the patio during the day when they are running. At night it’s an oasis of calm with nothing but the sounds of crashing waves, it’s amazing and we loved it, a true slice of heaven on playa negra, the semi black sand beach running behind the house for a few km. The swimming in the ocean right behind the house was nice as the sand isn’t deep for a while and I recommend it. Puerto Viejo is a few min away and is a bit of a party town with a lot of younger people and some older people mixed in, pretty cool town the further south you go in puerto Viejo the hippier it tends to get, the area next to the house is in a nicer area close to the banana azul property which is a great place to go get food, best in puerto Viejo that we tried and we tried a lot of places. Side note for those with a phobia of driving bigger cars in smaller spaces, the parking entrance is in the alley and it’s a tight turn if you have a larger suv, if it’s a small suv or car your good but be aware of this as it took me a day or so to get used to it compared to back home. So to wrap it up, awesome property, nice and clean, and exactly what you need if your going to puerto Viejo, thank you Nina for a great time.

Casa Luna was just as nice in person as the pictures, plenty of welcoming touches- great towels, coffee, furnishings. The hostess Nina was so kind and helpful, she assisted in our local bookings and arrangements and we tried many of her restaurant recs, it was like having a local friend. Thanks for a great stay Casa Luna!

Beautiful house right at beautiful Playa Negra. Full equipped with all you need and a super super friendly and supportive host and owner.  The best bar and restaurant of Puerto Viejo - no - of the Southern Caribean Costa Rica is just a 5 minute walk away.

I am so happy to hear you had a good stay and no worries - these things happen and most important is that it all worked and you were happy!

Casa Luna is a beauty!!! Close to everything and literally steps from Playa Negra , and a short drive to beautiful beaches such as Uvita and Chiquita. The rooms are very comfortable, the downstairs room is very convenient if you have teenagers it is safe and gives them a feeling of independence. Nina is amazing, communication with her is always fluid and willing to help in any way. We would definitely come back.

Casa Luna es una belleza!!! Cerca de todo y literalmente a pasos de playa Negra , y a corta distancia en carro de playas bellísimas como Uvita y Chiquita. Los cuartos son muy cómodos, es muy conveniente el cuarto de abajo si tienes adolescentes es seguro y les da una sensación de independencia. Nina es increíble, la comunicación con ella es siempre fluida y dispuesta a ayudar en todo. Definitivamente volveríamos.

This home is absolutely beautiful and gives such a tranquil experience. Everything in the home is modern and well put together. The views and sounds of the ocean are amazing. My family really enjoyed this home!

The house was very clean when we arrived. It has very good space on the terrace and the sound of the sea at night is great !! It has space only for 1 car.

La casa estaba muy limpia cuando llegamos. Tiene muy buen espacio en la terraza y el sonido del mar durante la noche es genial !! Tiene espacio solamente para 1 carro.

Casa Luna exceeded our expectations. The space is cozy, private, peaceful, has multiple places to relax in - a covered downstairs with fridge and hammock, plunge pool area, or upper covered deck. There are very thoughtful touches normally the result of the owner actually having spent time there - it is well lit, locks on the gate for security, etc. And it is only a few steps from playa negra and a short bike ride to puerto viejo and playa cocles. There is a great market just down the street that has all the essentials and hotel banana azul is also just down the street which has a great bar and restaurant. We actually cooked most nights but it was nice to take a break at hotel banana azul for a night. We also rented bikes from banana azul which was so convenient. Nina, the host, was incredibly responsive and super helpful when it came to tips or recommendations. We had zero issues while we were there.  We loved heading back to casa Luna at the end of a long day on the beach to relax. We would highly recommend a stay at Casa Luna.

Amazing, spectacular, the number of details was unique, the best experience on Airbnb. Thank you very much for everything

Increíble, espectacular, la cantidad de detalles fue única, la mejor experiencia en Airbnb. Muchas gracias por todo.

Hands down best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in. Beachfront with a private pool, and so close to town and a resort with bar and restaurant next door! Can’t say enough good things about this place! Absolutely amazing! Best vacation I’ve had in years!!!!!

Hands down, the best place we used in Costa Rica during our month long trip. House is perfect! Best location, comfortable and the host provides a great experience before, during and even after the stay. Highly recommend if you are planning on visiting the Puerto Viejo area.

Nice place to stay, having the pool was a plus.

We loved Casa Luna and can’t wait to come back . The location was perfect with the beach right across the street, Puerto Viejo town a 20 minute walk down the beach and Banana Azul resort very close and handy for when our young adult children traveling with us needed to get away from our company! The beds are comfy , there is a great supply of towels which were regularly replaced with clean ones, the kitchen is well stocked and a perfect place to cook. My favorite place was the couch on the front porch and sitting around the dining table on the porch for breakfast and dinner in the evenings . Thank you Nina , you are a wonderful host . See you next year!

Hey Amanda, we are looking forward to seeing you again next year. Pura Vida Louise, Owner

Lovely, comfortable house in a FANTASTIC location  less than 3 minute walk from the beach!  The kitchen was well equipped, the furniture comfortable, the little dipping pool quite refreshing and the easy walk to the beach club was a bonus when we wanted to be "waited on".  The sound of the ocean was great when sitting on the deck sipping coffee in the morning.  While I don't hesitate to recommend a stay here, I do feel the need to mention the truck traffic on the road in front of the house.  It was noisy if you spent much time at the property.  I wasn't feeling well one day and stayed in so noticed it for most of the day.  Apparently construction is going on farther down past the house.  I'd ask before booking if the traffic has lessened if you're bothered by such noise (and the dust it raised).

Hello Diane, It was lovely having you stay at Casa Luna Beach House. We too, love all the conveniences that being close to Puerto Viejo can offer! Sadly, Dust on a dirt road when we've had no rain is an issue all over Costa Rica. We've been working with the local community & government to get the road paved (pending). Currently we are working at rectifying this by having someone sweep and dust regularly during dry times. Nina will be arranging this and doing her best to battle the dust. As for traffic on our little road. Sadly, due to building down the road, we have experienced more road activity than usual. We are addressing this as we can by talking to our local government for solutions. As you mentioned, this takes place only during the daytime hours and often, our guests, are out exploring and having adventures during this time. Please come and visit again soon. All the best, Louise, Owner

Nina the hostess is wonderful. However beware that the location of the house is on a busy, loud and dusty street making it not very relaxing and quiet. The house is is nice, but during our stay the AC in the bedrooms did not cool very well; and in the evenings one of the AC’S in one of the bedrooms kept turning off and on not cooling making for horrible sleeping. The house desperately needs an AC unit in the living room kitchen area the afternoons and evenings were miserably hot. I’ve stayed during the past 5 years in Airbnb homes as well as have two homes with airbnb and this home is the first one not provide soap for bathing! In summary we left a day earlier as our stay at this home was not pleasant.

Hello Marino,   Thank you for choosing Casa Luna Beach House.  We are so sorry you didn't have the best stay at our beach home. We pride ourselves on being there for our clients should they need us at any time during their stay. As you know, Nina, our Property Manager lives next door to our house and told you that she was available by phone should you have questions or issues at any time during your stay.   We both wish you'd communicated to her that you were having difficulty working the air conditioning units. Nina could have immediately checked and, if needed, contacted our A/C maintenance person to come in and fix the issue.   As for the dust, we are on a narrow dirt road and because it was very dry, unseasonably hot as well as road work happening one day the dust was really stirred up. We normally have temperatures around 28 degrees but Nina told me that on Thursday it was as hot as 35 degrees. It is extremely rare to have temperatures this high, especially for several days.  As for noise, I checked with Nina, she said that the municipality was doing their annual road maintenance and during check in, she mentioned that your group could use the Hotel Banana Azul Beach Club which is a 2 minute walk down the road. We wish you had taken this option instead of sitting at the house while the work was happening. We are so sorry this happened when you were staying with us, but it is out of our hands when they decide to fix the road. Nina confirmed that in the evenings it was quiet and the only sound was the waves on the beach.  In regards to having AC in the living room, it is something we decided against when building. We do mention more than once in our listing that to keep with the Costa Rican style of homes we have A/C in all 3 bedrooms. The deck and living space doors open right up to the balcony and we have a fan in the living area and screened windows to catch the ocean breezes. This is, under normal conditions, sufficient for a fresh breeze throughout the house. Again the temperatures were unseasonably high while you were there. We also have a cool plunge pool on our lower deck which is perfect for cooling off on those hot jungle days.   Had we known about your discomfort at the time of your stay we would have offered you more solutions.  As for soap and shampoo. We have some lovely organic shampoo, body wash and conditioner available to our guests at all times. If we didn't have any in the bathrooms a quick call to Nina could have rectified this as well.   SOLUTIONS:   As soon as we saw your review we had our A/C maintenance person in to check the units. Everything is working well.  Road work has been completed.  All the best Louise, Owner

Extremely comfortable house, clean, complete. The host is great person, very warm. Highly recommended house.

Casa sumamente cómoda, limpia, completa. La anfitriona excelente persona, muy cálida. Muy recomendada la casa.

Muchas gracias y esperemos verlos pronto!

This place is a hiddem gem! It had everything me and my family could ask for during our stay in Puerto Viejo. The location could not be better. The space was plentiful with huge sitting areas/lounges in both floors. The internet was FAST and reliable. The ACs very potent. The amenities were over the top as well. I definitely recommend it!

Thank you Ricardo. It was a pleasure to host you and your family.

The house is beautiful, well equipped, comfortable and with an excellent view.
